{"title":"Assessment of Dental Pathology Using Visual Oral Examination in 1082 Dogs in Türkiye.","authors":"Melike Kübra Adak, Ibrahim Akin","doi":"10.1177/08987564251316652","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/08987564251316652","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution and prevalence of dental diseases in dogs from Türkiye and compare their relationships with various factors. The study focused on the impact of age, gender, feeding method, and breed groups on the presence of dental diseases. Results revealed that dental diseases were prevalent among dogs, with variations observed across different factors. Age group analysis indicated that age had a significant influence on the presence of dental diseases, with lower rates observed in the 0 to 9 months and 10 to 18 months age groups. Analysis of feeding methods showed that home-cooked and mixed feeding was associated with a higher prevalence of dental diseases, while dry food feeding demonstrated lower rates. Gender analysis revealed an association between gender and dental diseases, particularly in the incisor and premolar teeth. However, no statistical significance was found in the molar teeth. Analysis of breeds demonstrated variations in the prevalence of dental diseases, with small breeds showing higher rates. In conclusion, this study sheds light on the distribution and factors associated with dental diseases in dogs from Türkiye. The findings highlight the importance of age, feeding method, gender, and breed group as potential risk factors for dental diseases. The results can guide veterinarians and dog owners in implementing effective preventive measures and treatment strategies to maintain optimal dental health in dogs. Further research is warranted to explore additional factors and interventions for improving dental care in canine populations.</p>","PeriodicalId":17584,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"8987564251316652"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143399565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Mandibular Reconstruction With a Patient-Specific Implant Following Surgical Excision of an Acanthomatous Ameloblastoma in a Dog.","authors":"Erica Sampaio, Andrew Perry, Alix Freeman","doi":"10.1177/08987564241306935","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/08987564241306935","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Canine acanthomatous ameloblastoma (CAA) is an invasive benign epithelial odontogenic tumour most commonly affecting the mandible of large breed dogs. To the author's knowledge, this report describes the first computer-aided design patient-specific implant (PSI) that has been placed for a critical sized bone defect in mandibular reconstruction of a dog in the UK. The aim was to restore mandibular stability using a regenerative approach combining a titanium locking plate and compression-resistant matrix infused with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) to bridge the 85 mm mandibular defect created by a segmental mandibulectomy. A 7-year-old neutered crossbreed dog with a focal 60 × 45 × 30 mm³ mildly ulcerated mass on the left mandible was presented. Histopathology confirmed a CAA. A left segmental mandibulectomy was followed by a delayed (secondary) reconstructive surgery. The porous titanium scaffold was manufactured from the first computed tomography (CT) scan and was designed with a channel to be filled with a compression-resistant osteoconductive resorbable sponge material infused with an osteoinductive solution containing rhBMP-2. Follow-up CT scans were performed on the day of the second surgery, and 4 and 12 months after the second surgery. Filling the porous titanium scaffold with an osteoconductive strip mixed with rhBMP-2 promoted bone remodeling and stimulated partial osseous integration of the implant; however there was no evidence of complete osteosynthesis bridging the bone defect as initially expected. Twelve months after reconstruction, dorsal longitudinal implant exposure necessitated PSI explantation. This study reflects a recent surgical therapeutic approach that can be utilised to reconstruct mandibles. PSIs can help reduce the known postoperative complications inherent to large gap mandibulectomies. Therefore, their use has the potential to improve patient welfare by restoring mandibular and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) stability, preventing mandibular drift, improving prehension, and reducing the risk of secondary TMJ degenerative disease and pain. It is likely that some implant design refinement is required to achieve better success rates for these challenging cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":17584,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"8987564241306935"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143007717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Regional block descriptions for the infraorbital, maxillary, inferior alveolar, and mental blocks in domestic dogs and cats were evaluated and adapted for use in Bennett's wallabies based on descriptions of their anatomy and examination of 2 skulls. These approaches were then performed on cadaver heads with iohexol and methylene blue dye, and block placement was assessed on computed tomography scans and by gross dissection. All block approaches described in this study resulted in appropriate placement of regional anesthesia of the dentition in Bennett's wallabies.

The efficacy of the rostral inferior alveolar nerve block via the mental foramen has not been previously studied. Aims of this study included determining the efficacy of the block, investigating whether any region (labial mucosa, alveolar mucosa, or teeth) was more reliably anesthetized, and if differences in efficacy existed between bilateral and unilateral blocks. In this blinded trial, 10 horses each were randomly assigned to receive a left unilateral block, right unilateral block or bilateral blocks and 5 horses were bilateral controls. For unilateral groups, the contralateral side of the horse acted as its own unilateral control. Mechanical nociceptive stimulus methods were used to determine response to stimulus at time points pre-sedation, post-sedation, and post-injection at 10, 30, 60, and 90 min. Results were evaluated in 4 groups: unilateral blocks, unilateral controls, bilateral blocks and bilateral controls. Overall, all groups were significantly less likely to respond to stimulus at time points post-sedation, T10, and T30, whereas only blocked sites were less likely to respond at T60 and T90 compared to pre-sedation. There was no significant difference in response to stimuli of blocked sites between the 3 regions at all time points.
